A system for calculating the bearing of a signal source, with a directional antenna, provides corrections for distortion, such as due to a small fuselage of the monitoring aircraft and the elevation angle of an intruder aircraft with respect to the monitoring aircraft. A correction is applied to the bearing estimate that is based on relevant factors, such as the fuselage size and the elevation angle of the intruder aircraft. The correction can be calculated or applied through the use of a look-up table, which may be either pre-selected or selected after calculation of the elevation angle of the intruder aircraft. |
